| 121. for floods, how about a small child's raft? |
|
or small inflatable boat or kiddie pool. that way you can pull her along in the water. But you'd have to be really careful yourself about walking in flooded water because manhole covers would be washed away and it's dangerous if you step into one of those holes. Best to leave before the flood hits ... and if you need a place to stay, PM me and come on down to Baltimore.
